FBV Shortboard
1. Channel A, B, C & D: Select from the four Channel
Memories 
2. Bank Up - Bank Down: The FBV Shortboard
gives you 9 banks of 4 channels each. Bank 1 is the
same 4 memories you get from the LowDown front
panel A,B,C, and D buttons when no FBV is connected.
Also, the LowDown front panel A,B,C, and D buttons
are the 4 presets from the currently selected bank on
Shortboard.
3. Stomp/Mod/Delay/Reverb: You guessed it! These
switch the LowDown effects on and off as if they were
stomp boxes on a pedal board. We have included
stickers to re-label your Shortboard.
STOMP turns the Smart FX on and off.
MOD turns the compressor on and off.
DELAY turns the Deep switch on and off.
REVERB does nothing; it is just there for you to
stomp on, if you want to, so the crowd will think you
are cool.
4. Tap/Tuner: LowDown does not use a delay so this
is just to kick in the tuner. Hold this switch until you
see the tuner on the pedal’s display. Press it again to
exit tuner mode.
5. Wah and Volume Lights: These light to show
that a pedal is ready to control Wah or Volume. Note:
Pressing the pedal fully forward to click the toe-switch
selects its control between Wah or Volume. If a separate
expression pedal is connected to the rear panel 1/4-
inch jack, the pedal controls Wah only, with the toe
switch toggling the Wah on/off.
6. External Pedal Jack: You can connect an
expression pedal (such as the Line 6 EX-1) to the
Shortboard’s rear panel 1/4-inch jack, and the
connected pedal will control Volume.
7. FBV Pedal: Press the pedal forward to click the
toe-switch, turning the pedal from Volume to Wah.
The Wah is modeled after a vintage Tycobrahe
ParaPedal Wah.
